Eddie Possehl is a dynamic and driven writer/director with a passion for the written word and all things film, television, comics, and games.
As people prepare for James Gunn's 2025 blockbuster, Superman, it's hard not to look back on the last adaption of the character and wonder what could've been. Indeed, few DC actors were more wasted than Henry Cavill; his iteration of Superman, while not perfect, was absolutely beloved by fans.
While the fight is an excellent display of what some good hand-to-hand Superman combat can look like, it's the number of people he tries to save that shows how dedicated the hero really is to saving innocents. For example, when the helicopter begins to fall after Faora-UI attacks it, he prioritizes saving the men on board rather than continuing his fight.Not available
Shots from the ground, zooming in on the two gods in the sky like a news camera, are particularly impressive. Having a camera attached to Superman's back while he punches Zod through the air was also a stroke of genius. The fight scene is a great example of what Snyder is best at as a director: action and spectacle, which, while not perfect, made him a great choice to direct a darker Superman movie like Man of Steel.

It's a great example of exactly why the League needs Superman; he's their tank, their titan. Thanks to his reappearance, they're able to take down Steppenwolf and save the planet.
